Patent number: 11550855Abstract: A cloud scraping system using pre-scraped big data includes an information providing server which, when receiving a scraping request from a user terminal, provides the user terminal with response information to the received scraping request, and a big data storage which stores pre-scraped information, wherein when the scraping request is about static information, the information providing server acquires the response information using the pre-scraped information. According to the above cloud scraping system using pre-scraped big data, there is an advantage that it is possible to quickly respond to a scraping request from the user terminal afterwards by pre-scraping and storing static information in the big data storage. Additionally, it is possible to improve the scraping server operation efficiency by making a proper use of a single or multi-processing scraping server based on policy information of a scraping target external institution.Type: GrantFiled: January 5, 2021Date of Patent: January 10, 2023Assignee: COOCON CO., LTD.Inventors: Jae Won Jeong, Cheong Seok Back

Patent number: 11442973Abstract: A system for storing document collections in a manner that facilitates efficient querying. Each document vector is hashed, by applying a suitable hash function to the components of the vector. The hash function maps the vector to a particular hash value, corresponding to a particular hyperbox in the multidimensional space to which the vectors belong. The vector, or a pointer to the vector, is then stored in a hash table in association with the vector's hash value. Subsequently, given a document of interest, documents similar to the document of interest may be found by hashing the vector of the document of interest, and then returning the vectors that are associated, in the hash table, with the resulting hash value.Type: GrantFiled: October 21, 2019Date of Patent: September 13, 2022Assignee: COGNYTE TECHNOLOGIES ISRAEL LTD.Inventors: Yitshak Yishay, Shlomo Rothschild
